<p>Hi Lynn,<br>
</p>
<p>I notice the phrase "onedrive" in the data source path.</p>
<p>Could it be that the sync-options of your OneDrive don't really
sync the data, but just do a sync on-demand?<br>
(in which case the shapefile-file (.shp, .shx etc) are just a
placeholder for the real files, that are somewhere up in the
OneDrive-cloud.</p>
<p>In Windows explorer, you can tell this by an icon behind the
filename:<br>
- blue cloud icon: not locally available, just in the cloud<br>
- green checkmark: available on your device ('offline")<br>
<br>
<br>
</p>
<p>Kind regards, <br>
</p>
<p>Gert-Jan</p>
